About this product

Product Information

Inscriptions are a rich source of information about ancient Greek and Roman culture. Yet the constantly increasing mass of available material, and the specialized conventions of epigraphic editing and publication, can make the study of these crucial documents intimidating for the non-specialist. This readable and fully-illustrated study thoroughly demystifies epigraphic evidence. It offers a wide-ranging exploration of the significance of inscribed texts in understanding the ancient world, and points out the hazards and limits of their use as historical sources. Individual chapters address: * the significance of inscribed writing in the ancient world * the linguistic and inscriptional diversity that resulted when the epigraphic cultures of Greece and Rome encountered native traditions * the contribution of epigraphy to our knowledge of personal names and individual identities (onomastics and prosopography), the family and society, and civic and religious life * the relevance of inscribed implements for daily use (instrumentum domesticum) for ancient economic history. A useful appendix guides the reader around the arrangement of the major epigraphic corpora and serial publications. Maryline G.

Fantastic seller! My item took longer than normal to arrive but that's due to them sending me the wrong dvd. Not to worry though, I contacted them and they arranged for the correct dvd to be sent out. My item has now arrived and the dvd was in excellent condition (brand new as described) and it was very well packaged. I would also like to say that the value for money is excellent. I highly recommend this seller, thank you so much! The issue with the wrong dvd was quickly rectified .

Book arrived safely packaged in perfect order. Item as described, new. Thank you Rarewaves Outlet. Fascinating book, great addition to my collection. Great price. Would recommended this seller. No communication needed with seller, so don't know what to rate with regards to communication (please dont take lack of feedback on this matter as a negative). Thanks again.

This vinyl is really reasonably priced and I love that it is one of the more unusual colours. It arrived well packaged, undamaged and looks as described. It arrived late, due to Royal Mail's Festive rush, but was dispatched by the seller really quickly. When I contacted them to ask where it was, they replied really quickly with a helpful solution. Such good customer service, so strongly recommend. Really happy with my purchase.
